Expecting my smoker today can't wait I went with the 6 shelf and I'm new to he whole smoking thing. I do have a question. How long is the cord for the plug? And will the gfci that I run my pool on be ok for the smoker as long as I'm not using it on anything else at the same time.
the cord on the smoker is approx 3 to 4 foot long,,, you can get longer cords for it,,, you just need a longer computer cord for it... and yes you can use the gfci as long as nothing else is on it ,, or not a heavy load such as the pool pump. one other concern is do not run the smoker near the pool, .. if something were to happen you and or the smoker could end up in the pool,, this issue could be bad for the pool, the smoker and you.
if it is 15 feet away you should be safe
welcome aboard as well

Thank you. With such a short cord I think I will install a new plug on the side of the garage I can use a extra anyway thanks gonna try ribs if it gets here in time.

Beefman is probably right but some pool pumps pull around 15 amps @ 110 volts. If your breaker is rated for 20 amps, you may not make it. The last thing you want is to have the breaker tripping in the middle of a smoke.
I'm new here too so don't take my word for it though.
Welcome Traydove76, congrats on the purchase
